Ashley N. Sarratt

Ashley N. Sarratt serves as a key procurement professional within the Department of the Air Force’s FA4419 agency, responsible for managing acquisitions that sustain and modernize critical air base infrastructure and aerospace maintenance systems. Her work directly supports operational readiness by securing mission-critical equipment and services essential to aircraft sustainment, facility utilities, and environmental systems. She handles a diverse portfolio of contracts spanning industrial machinery, fabricated metal components, and aircraft auxiliary equipment, ensuring compliance with federal acquisition regulations and alignment with Air Force modernization priorities. Her role bridges technical requirements with contracting execution to maintain high standards of reliability and performance across expeditionary and home-station operations. Sarratt maintains a consistent working relationship with COORDINATED DEFENSE SUPPLY SYSTEMS, INC., a trusted vendor providing industrial machinery and equipment distribution services. Her procurement patterns reflect a preference for established contractors with proven capabilities in aerospace logistics and maintenance support, while also actively engaging with specialized small businesses capable of delivering niche technical solutions. She fosters long-term vendor partnerships grounded in performance reliability, supply chain resilience, and compliance with defense industrial base standards. Her contracting approach prioritizes small business participation, with 37.5% of awards designated as total small business set-asides under FAR 19.5, reflecting a strong commitment to socioeconomic goals. While the majority of acquisitions remain open to all competitors, her consistent use of small business set-asides demonstrates intentional support for qualified small entities capable of fulfilling specialized maintenance and manufacturing requirements. Sarratt’s primary procurement focus lies in NAICS 423830 (industrial machinery wholesalers), 336413 (other aircraft parts and auxiliary equipment manufacturing), and 332312 (fabricated structural metal manufacturing). She regularly acquires conveyor systems, custom-fabricated metal components, and specialized maintenance tools critical to aircraft and base infrastructure sustainment. Her technical expertise spans aerospace logistics, industrial equipment lifecycle management, and facility support systems, ensuring acquisitions align with Air Force readiness objectives.
